This is a hysterical comedy about the invention of the vibrator.
<br />
The leading lady Charlotte Dalrymple (played by Maggie Gyllenhaal) is an avid first wave feminist and social reformer.
<br />
I only saw this movie once in theater, but in my recollection:
<br />
Charlotte talks with (screams at) her sister Emily (Felicity Jones) who plays the part of the &quot;good daughter&quot;,
<br />
gives money for the rent to Fanny &amp; puts her in charge of the house when she&#39;s gone to the engagementparty of Emily &amp; Mortimer (Hugh Dancy)
<br />
and she tries &amp; gets a loan for the poorhouse by giving her earrings as security to her godparents &amp; talks about this to her godmother at the party.
<br />
She also decks someone there, that&#39;s not parts of the Bechdel test, it&#39;s just pure awesomeness.
<br />
<br />
But i&#39;m not suppose to spoil the movie; GO SEE THIS FILM!2012-01-15T17:56:45+02:00Rodrigo Ortiz Vinholohttp://bechdeltest.com/view/2991/hysteria/#comment-2
Charlotte talks to her sister Emily and her friend Molly about several topics. She also speaks to Lady St. John-Smythe at the party and several times to minor characters, including her friend with the broken ankle (though her name escapes me now).2012-11-10T21:53:15+02:00
